Hypermetabolic Cerebellar Connectome in Alzheimer's Disease

Abstract
Introduction: Regional hypermetabolism in Alzheimer's disease (AD), especially in the cerebellum, has been consistently observed but often neglected as an artefact produced by the commonly used proportional scaling procedure in the statistical parametric mapping. We hypothesize that the hypermetabolic regions are also important in disease pathology in AD.
